Alan D Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Thinking about an ED80 for Imaging and quick grab & go.I have an EQ1 that that came with an old ST80. Anyone using an EQ1 with an ED80 or know if it would suffice for quick grab & go? CheersAlan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan D Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Sorry guys re-read this and may not have been clear that my issue is would the EQ1 be to light to hold the ED80. (not is the ED80 okay for grab n go ) Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazOC Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I don't think so, its pretty 'touch and go' on a EQ2. The EQ80 is a big, heavy scope for a 80mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonCopestake Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 no is the short answer. The ED80 is a heavy beast for an 80mm 'scope. Think a fully loaded one hits 4kg(!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
